Chapter 210
Felix heard Yvette’s words and glanced over at the crew. They just held their cameras, shot the scene inside, and showed no intention of helping Shakira.
Felix agreed with Yvette’s view. However, as he watched the crowd grow larger, he couldn’t help but feel worried as it normal?
As more patients pushed in, Shakira realized something was wrong.
Even if a patient had questioned her, it shouldn’t have caused such chaos so quickly. Shakira felt a chill go down her spine as she discreetly pressed the red button under the desk.
In the crowd, it was unclear which elder started it, but someone threw an egg onto the clinic floor. Once one acted, others followed to vent their frustration.
“Unethical doctor, give us compensation!” “Look how she is covered up. Reveal it and see what she is hiding!” Some even tried to rush in and assault Shakira.
Finally, the crew realized something was wrong and rushed in to help Shakira, but they were no match for the elderly people who regularly did aerobics in the park.
Felix finally realized this wasn’t part of the show’s script! He said, “Oh no! Something has gone wrong!”
Felix wanted to rush in and help Shakira, but Yvette saw the terrifying scene and held onto his arm to stop him. Yvette said, “Felix, I’m scared. Please don’t go.”
Looking back at the panic–stricken Yvette and the clinic that was blocked, Felix was incredibly anxious.
The situation was getting more severe. Fortunately, the hospital security guards led some police officers and a few hospital administrators over. Seeing the police officers, the elderly people realized things were serious and calmed down.
The corridor was finally cleared. Felix pushed Yvette away and rushed into the clinic. He saw Shakira holding up a stun baton defensively and kept the rest from getting too close. He sighed with relief. Thank goodness nothing happened!
Even so, the clinic was a mess with broken eggs and rotten vegetables scattered all over the floor.
A police officer walked in with authority and said, “What’s happening here? Can’t you handle things calmly? You caused a disturbance and even attacked the doctor. This is severe!”
The elderly people who acted up started crying loudly, “Officer, we’re innocent! We didn’t even lay a finger on her!” “Yes, we’re here for treatment and don’t have the energy to fight with someone so young. Officer, you came just in time.”
“Please be fair. She has covered herself like a robber and charged over 3 thousand dollars for a registration fee. Isn’t that a scam? Being like this, how can she treat patients?”
“Exactly, she doesn’t look like a doctor. She looks wired!” “We’re not causing trouble. We just want an explanation from the hospital!”
The officer instinctively looked over at Shakira, glanced at her nameplate on the desk, and said, “Dr. Lonely Bird?”
Shakira put away the stun baton and placed it back in the drawer. Unlike the excited patients, Shakira stayed calm and composed.
Shakira said, “Yes, I’m the doctor seeing patients today. First, let me clarify. A doctor is not limited by clothing. Whether I cover my face or not doesn’t relate to my medical skills.

“Secondly, today’s registration fee for the specialist is 12 dollars. After insurance, patients only need to pay 9 dollars. As for the alleged ‘over 3 thousand dollars‘, that’s a personal transaction and is unrelated to the doctor or the hospital.”
The old woman, who had shouted about spending over 3 thousand dollars, yelled, “Unrelated? Do you know how hard it is for me to get a chance to see you? It turns out you are just a young girl! Had I known earlier, I wouldn’t have bought it!”
Shakira glanced at the old woman sharply, saw through everything, and pointed out the flaws in her words calmly.

“Oh? Looking at your clothes, you don’t seem like someone from a wealthy family. What kind of serious ailment makes you willing to spend over 3 thousand dollars for a consultation with me?
“If you didn’t even know the specialist’s background, why were you willing to pay 3 thousand dollars?”
Everyone suddenly had a moment of enlightenment. Shakira was right! Who would spend over 3 thousand dollars on a doctor’s appointment without even knowing about the doctor? Who would act a fool like that?
Facing Shakira’s question, the older woman was speechless. Seeing everyone looking at her with strange gazes, the old woman retorted, “I’m rich and reluctant to see a quack like you swindle. What’s wrong with that?”
Shakira sneered, “I haven’t diagnosed you, but you call me a quack. You must be better at medicine than I am.”
By now, the police officer understood that someone was deliberately causing trouble. Fortunately, this young doctor stayed calm and prevented a major incident.
The older woman was speechless by the confrontation. Seeing the police officer looking at her, she could only lower her head in embarrassment.
Shakira looked around at everyone present and checked the time on her computer. She said, “It’s 8:28 a.m. If you still want to see me for your appointment, please get in line. Otherwise, you can go to the front desk for a refund.”
The elderly people exchanged puzzled glances. They all seemed forgetful now and wondered why they had acted so impulsively.
Susan also felt puzzled. She was the first and said, “Check me first. Everyone here can witness to see if you’re a good doctor
or not!”
Susan sat down on the chair in front of Shakira’s desk and waited for Shakira to examine her.
Meanwhile, the cleaning staff had come in to clean up the mess on the floor.
Shakira rubbed her hands with sanitizer and didn’t mind leaving the door open, even with so many people watching her.
Shakira said, “Give me your right hand and then your left.” She felt Susan’s pulse and examined Susan’s complexion and features.
Soon, Shakira had her conclusion, “You’re a light sleeper and rarely dream. You sleep less than six hours, with pain in the left shoulder after being exposed to cold.”
Susan opened her mouth wide in disbelief and blurted out, “How did you know?!”
Shakira looked at her calmly and replied, “Observation and inquiry allow for a simple deduction.”
Susan said, “Wow! I didn’t expect you to have such skills! Anything else?”
Shakira didn’t hesitate and said, “You have bad breath, often feel thirsty at night, and sometimes have a rapid heartbeat.”
